Folks aren’t voting to move to Ann Arbor with their feet.

That’s a pretty good barometer.

A 22% pay increase for me ever wouldn’t be enough for me to consider moving there.

MI auto insurance consistently ranks as one of the most expensive, comparable to Louisiana. Many everyday things are more expensive plus MI has an income tax. It has some very beautiful areas, plenty of outdoor activities just not a whole lot of calendar time for it.

do you prefer places that are growing rapidly and becoming overcrowded?

Nah, that's just the average. You'll get winter days much warmer, and colder, than that.

Ann Arbor is far superior to Dallas.

Even though she's a slut (at least what an Ohio guy told me), I really like Ann Arbor.

Last time in town ran in to a former LSU football player (1950s era). Boy, cant remember his name right now but ran in to him in New Orleans prior to Championship game as well. Son is doctor in Ann Arbor.

I would bet at worse those numbers come from Ann Arbor proper, and you can live considerably cheaper outside of town. Its only 120k people or so, so getting outside of the city should be pretty easy and I bet very cheap.



Correct, but some of the suburbs are fairly expensive, too. As has been said, the biggest factor in cost is cost of housing in AA itself.

It's a terrific place. Go in with good expectations, and you will probably like it a lot. I've said in another thread, a lot of college students do everything they can to get away from their college town when they graduate and get a life. One of the reasons AA is expensive is because people who graduate from UMich do everything they possibly can to stay there. And there are good reasons.

There's plenty of great food there, although restaurants come and go frequently. It's a pleasant enough place as a city on its own, and close to real recreation areas.

I miss living there, and if I could afford it, I'd move back in a heartbeat after I retire.

Is that the only other choice?

Nope.

“Screw living in Michigan” is what most folks who can live anywhere (like me) are saying.

Michigan people are bland. Ann Arbor is NOT a party town.
